Kensington Wade School Debating & Interview Clubs - 8th & 12th September 2025

This was a great start to the term with our debating and interview clubs. It was super to see old and new faces alike as we begin the new academic year.

Current affairs took in the resignation of the deputy Prime Minister, to international meetings in China and France and the tragic earthquakes in Afghanistan.

Our warm-up questions looked at highlights from the holidays and goals for the Michaelmas term.

Our skill focus turned to the building-blocks of proposition argumentation.

Our set-piece motions and philosophical topics/questions included:

·         ‘This House would give names for storms’

·         ‘How do you know the moon isn’t made of cheese?’

·         ‘Why has the price of goods/food become more expensive – should government do more?’

·         ‘Is chess a sport?’

·         ‘This House would like to be famous’

Very well done all on a super start to the term and an excellent set of contributions in both our senior and junior club sessions.
